I purchased a Series 1 Apple Watch for my wife not too long after they were introduced. Her's was a refurb purchased through Woot.com around Feb '16. Yesterday she hands me the pieces of her watch. She said she was taking off her sweatshirt and the next thing she knows there are pieces of her watch falling out of the sleeve. it seems that the battery had bloated and popped the screen off. Think there's any chance of getting Apple to replace that? I'm guessing not, but is it worth asking?

Sweet! Thank you one and all. I don't think they'll be repairing my wife's watch. The screen was ripped off of the watch so there are tiny ribbon cables hanging out of the top. I'd say they'd most likely replace it.

I can't see them taking the time to repair it. It's worth very little at this point. It would be cheaper for them to send a refurb S1 off the shelf. The screen popped off inside her sleeve and she ripped the guts apart when she pulled the shirt off. I could be wrong, but I doubt it. They've got to be running low on Series 1 refurbs by now though.
